If this doesn't make clear to you why independent, pro-democracy media is crucially important, I don't know what will. Democracy Docket is urgently trying to scale up to step in where legacy media is failing. Sign-up now to support its efforts. hubs.ly/Q03CbHTt0

Of course they know! Cruelty is the point.
The Trump administration is so stupid. They don’t realize how Putin he’s trying to separate us and we will be vulnerable.

23 hours now
We have 24 hours before the Senate vote to stop the January premium increases - $6,200 annual increase for the average Connecticut family on an ACA plan.

Republicans can still choose to do the right thing and vote with us.

People keep wondering why they're going after Venezuela. It's because they want to do regime change and control its oil, then use a big tract of land there to keep a tax free "network state" that looks like Dubai but operates like Rhodesia. They are saying this out loud! Believe them!

This is important. Especially that part about COSTS GOING UP BECAUSE TRUMP IS MAKING THEM GO UP NOT BECAUSE OF NATURAL ECONOMIC FACTORS.

After seeing Morgan Stanley's new $TSLA analyst awarding a $210bn ($60/share) valuation for Tesla's (non-existent) Optimus program, I've been gathering a list of Musk's "fails".

Interesting to find that, since his "homerun" with the Model Y, Musk's been on a non-stop downward spiral of innovation.

I need you to listen to and share this story - of how Trump is preparing to abandon Ukraine in exchange for Russian money for his billionaire friends.

It could be the greatest corruption of American foreign policy in our history. Russia gets Ukraine. Trump's friends get rich.

Tom Cotton would not even be in Congress, were it not for the huge defense contractors supporting him from the beginning and keeping him flush with cash.

Could someone at today’s press conference please bring this up?
The most transparent administration in history is now hiding both the complete Epstein files and the complete video of the Sept. 2 boat strike from the American people, only releasing the parts of each that they want you to see while concealing the rest.

Again, cruelty is the point
Incarcerated members of the LGBTQ community already face heightened risks for physical and sexual violence, and this directive to disregard the law will only put them further at risk.

Human rights don't end at the prison walls.
DOJ orders prison inspectors to stop considering LGBTQ safety standards
A memo obtained by NPR shows the Justice Department is telling inspectors to stop evaluating prisons using standards designed to protect trans and other LGBTQ community members from sexual violence.

The stories of pregnant women in ICE detention — one shackled while miscarrying, another placed in solitary confinement with a high-risk pregnancy — are not one offs.

They're a clear pattern of neglect where ICE ignores its own rules. This cruelty must end.
Pregnant immigrants held for months in detention despite rules against it
With the immigration crackdown, more pregnant women are being detained. The ACLU alleges a woman was shackled while miscarrying and others were denied prenatal care.

It’s important to remember there are two scandals here:

1. The Administration has likely committed war crimes.

2. But the entire operation - which now includes two dozen attacks - is illegal. In our democracy, the President CANNOT wage war without the consent of the people.
BERMAN: Did you see any evidence of them trying to use a radio in the video you saw?

TOM COTTON: Well I saw lots of evidence of them standing on the boat that had been capsized

BERMAN: That wasn't my question. Did you see any evidence?
